For the past quarter-century, Colorado’s Leftover Salmon has established itself as one of the great purveyors of Americana music, digging deep into the well that supplies its influences; rock ‘n’ roll, folk, bluegrass, Cajun, soul, zydeco, jazz and blues. During their twenty-five plus years as a band they have headlined shows and festivals from coast to coast, released nine albums, and maintained a vibrant, relevant and influential voice in the music world. The evolution of Leftover Salmon’s music is influenced by Leftover Salmon co-founders Drew Emmitt (mandolin/vocals) and Vince Herman‘s (guitar/singer) keen musical instincts, and follows a musical path that adheres to the deep tradition the duo started when they first formed the group along with deceased banjo player Mark Vann. The addition of new band members over the years has nurtured an unmistakable evolution and freshness in Leftover Salmon’s sound, and has added an edge to the long-lasting power of the band’s music.
is there a more iconic instrument in the jam scene than that banjo???? Even Trey says Hell Naw! I just ate a hostess apple pie in rememberance. Finished it with a G run. Salmon for life humans!!
I've been a Salmon head since back in the Left hand string band and Rollinsville days and partying at the old schoolhouse with the boys. I was actually at the Swiss Chalet for Vince's wedding. I'm so happy to see Vince and the band finding new fans and just overall, bringing together Good People.✌🏾 Yakoo!
